[PATCH] powerpc: Fix something

From: Paul Mackerras <hidden>
Date: 2008-12-29 00:12:57

X has been failing to start on my quad G5 powermac since commit
1fd0f52583a85b21a394201b007bc1ee104b235d ("powerpc: Fix domain numbers
in /proc on 64-bit") went in.  The reason is that the change allows X
to see the PCI-PCI bridge above the video card (previously it was
obscured by the fact that there were two "00" directories in
/proc/bus/pci), and the pciconfig_iobase system call on the bridge is
failing because of a hack that we have to return information about the
AGP bus when X asks about bus 0.  This machine doesn't have an AGP bus
(it has PCI Express) and so the pciconfig_iobase call is returning -1,
which ultimately causes X to fail to start.

This fixes it by checking that we have an AGP bridge before
redirecting the pciconfig_iobase call to return information about the
AGP bus.  With this, X starts successfully both on a quad G5 with
PCI Express and on an older dual G5 with AGP.

Oops... obviously the subject line wasn't fully baked.  How about

[PATCH] powerpc: Fix pciconfig_iobase system call on PCI-Express powermac

(With fixed subject of course :-)

Cheers,
